Dr Leila Jameel (Trial Co-ordinator and Research Therapist) was interviewed on behalf of the AMETHYST team by Sky News and it was aired on their Breakfast show on 26.07.2024.
You can watch the recording here.
The feature discussed how common hearing voices is and how for some it can be a persistent and distressing experience.
It introduced avatar therapy, with a demonstration of the technology and how it works in practice.
There was also an interview from a participant of the Challenge trial who had tried out a similar technology and therapy with our collaborators in Denmark.
We hope this news feature will help people across Australia to learn about the AMETHYST trial and the importance of developing evidence based psychological therapies to help people who hear voices.
